Mommy said you're beautiful
And that one day you'd meet a prince
He'd bring you flowers and play with your curls
He'll make you feel like the most special girl in the world.
I tried to tell Mommy
That my attraction to boys was 10-10
And that I desired the beauty of women even then
A boy could only be my friend.
The preacher use to say that it was sin.
A demon from the abyss
Had found their way in
But my feeling is not a fiend.
Mommy said I'll cherish you
No matter what you do
Because if your emotions are pure
Then you have nothing to fear.
If you love with a love that is true
Then the world can never make it blue
Even if you're happy without a clue
As long as you're smiling it doesn't matter who?
I wrote this for the young
I wrote this for the young me.
